What Should My Cervix Feel Like

THE POLITICAL BATTLES OF LIFE IN A MOMENT Relived

Giacomo Stucchi

On the House to ensure confidence in the Government's majority on the resolution on the text on the municipal fiscal federalism is one of those moments that will remain forever etched in our memory. This historic milestone could not be achieved without the foresight of our Federal Secretary Umberto Bossi, the perseverance of the Minister for Simplification Calderoli, and of course the cohesion of the parliamentary groups of the Northern League who have always spoken and acted in unison. For those who are married to a cause, even before a political project, you have helped to bring home this result has the flavor of a satisfaction all its own. Before the eyes have gone in a moment years of political struggle from the start, when to go around with our flags and our ideas to get you crazy, the long journey through the desert and, despite a resounding victory in terms of votes and parliamentary opposition, the League had to remain, to the disappointment with the outcome of the referendum on constitutional reform launched in 2006, we finally arrive at these difficult but extraordinary years of the Government. But two things are immediately highlighted. The first is that the whole legislative process to become fully operational, fiscal federalism has not ended. After the 'yes' to the confidence of the House, and the enactment of the implementing decree on federalism municipal definitively by the Council of Ministers (just arrived the day after the parliamentary vote), must now be approved other decrees of the reform still missing and are already being discussed in chambers. The second point is that, as rightly pointed Bossi, the opposition would do well to confidence vote on municipal federalism. Why? Firstly, because it would not have missed the opportunity to make a contribution, political and institutional framework, a reform which is now truly irreversible, and because it was consistent with what has been done in the first part of the current legislature, when the debate on fiscal federalism was not yet poisoned by the controversy over judicial affairs of the premier. The impression is that of old and new opponents Government there has been an attempt failed spectacularly, exacerbating the political climate, hoping to wipe out the ongoing reform process and the parliamentary majority legitimized by popular vote. On fiscal federalism, however, the opposition now has a second chance. The extension of four months of the enabling law on federalism, which was approved by the Council of Ministers, offers to all those who care about the fate of the country the chance to bury the hatchet of polemics and unnecessary equipment and to return to a frank dialogue and constructive.
